Subject:	TAB-completion funny with dll files

[Disclaimer:  Yes, I did STFW. 'tab completion dll site:cygwin.com' just
brings up every post there's ever been about tab completion, because 'dll'
occurs in just about every post there's ever been on any subject on this
list!]


  Does anyone know why tab-completion doesn't work for .dll files?  I don't
mean in the first word of a command line, I know that only completes
filenames of executables, but generally when you're entering the args for ls
or cp or something like that, you can tab-complete any kind of filename.
What makes dlls so special?  



    cheers,
